I don't want to date someone who's exactly like me.
And somehow, saying that has become controversial.
If I say I don't want to marry another lawyer, people assume it's because I can't handle a strong, successful woman.
That's ridiculous.
I spend my days stressed, working long hours, obsessively checking my phone, and dealing with other people's problems.
Why would I necessarily want to come home to someone living that exact same life?
I want someone who brings something different into mine.
Someone who balances me out. Who reminds me there's more to life than work.
And I want to be able to give that person something equally valuable in return.
A relationship doesn't have to be two people doing the same things to be an equal partnership.
